Third wave: Why SA *might* be nearing 'the worst-case scenario'
The forecast third wave of COVID-19 is getting underway in SA – with its severity yet to be determined. Adam Lowe, a member of the Actuarial Society of South Africa’s Covid-19 Working Group, has modelled what our ‘worst-case scenario’ could look like – and there are a couple of factors Mzansi can already ‘tick-off’. The severity of SA’s 3rd wave of Covid-19 infections will depend on its timing. Research by the @ActuarialSa Covid-19 Working Group shows that an early 3rd wave in May is likely to be less severe than the 2nd wave based on historical precedent. https://t.co/Q3fDjzY...
